Dear Pati and Family,
I learned of Phyllis' passing only a few minutes ago (Fri a m), catching up with Wednesday's "Herald" - and regretfully too late to attend her services today.
I surely would have been there, for Phyllis was a very special person. She was one of the first people I met when relocating here to Cape May County in 1984. Since that time my late husband, Rick, and I shared and survived many dynamic events with Phyllis and Tony, touching all of our lives.
What a selfless, savvy and lively woman Phyllis was! - filled with energetic and creative ideas to always improve life in the community, a fearless warrior fighting for causes she believed in, and an unfailing friend and ally to countless people throughout her life.
I believe she loved her family more than anything, so I pray now for your strength to continue on without her powerful "wind beneath your wings". Perhaps angels provide that too, and you will feel it often. As you navigate through the heartache now enveloping you, please remember all the good times through the years that you enjoyed and shared with her.
Love to all the family,
Phyllis Childs
